For this Valentine you will need:
- the printable found at the end of this post
- Toy Cars (we used these provided by Oriental Trading)
- scissors
- bakers twine
- a single hole punch
Print and cut out the paper valentine. Have you child address them to each child in their class. Using the single hole punch, punch a hole on either side of the valentine.
String a piece of bakers twine through both holes to make a loop. Slide the car through the loop. Tie the twine in a bow on the back of the card to secure the car to the card.
All of the kids in the class are going to love having a fun card and car to play with!

I simply adore candy free valentines. Even more, I love ones that can be played with and recycled. It cuts down on clutter.

This is so so cute. Although if a boy told me 11 year stepdaughter she makes his heart race my husband may not like it too much LOL (me neither)!

When I have grandkids, can I just hire you to do all my parties and crafting? You are amazing.
